The following soft token authenticators are available on Identity as a Service:
● Entrust Soft Token
An Entrust Soft Token (ST) is an authentication
token provided by Entrust for use with its various authentication platforms.
When assigned to a user, Identity as a Service requires that those who
have been assigned this authenticator provide a specific challenge response
generated by the Entrust ST application. A user using a mobile device
with an Internet connection can also use an enhanced Entrust ST feature
called Push
Notification.
● SDK Soft Token
A custom mobile soft token app that generates a one-time password (OTP) to allow users to access applications.
● Entrust Legacy Token
A custom mobile soft token app that generates a one-time password (OTP) to allow users to access applications.
● Google Authenticator
A Google authenticator is soft token app that generates a one-time password (OTP) to allow users to access applications. The default name is Google Authenticator. This name can be changed (see Customize email templates). When the name is changed, the new name updates throughout, including authenticator settings (see Modify Google authenticator settings).
A user can have multiple soft tokens. For example, if a user with multiple mobile devices might want to add a soft token to each one.
Administrators can assign soft tokens to users using the following methods:
● Automatically assign users a soft token. If the user has an email address, the user receives an email with instructions to activate their Entrust ST tokens. See Manage General settings for information on automatically assigning Entrust Soft Tokens to users.
● Add a soft token to a user's profile
Users can also add soft tokens to their accounts
Note: Before assigning authenticators to users, review the authenticator settings and change them as required. See Modify Entrust Soft Token (ST) authenticator settings.
